Again, in the course of civil war the Government of PareJes was overthrown. We ci'ild not b it hope this would prove a torti:ri;.te event, and that whatever other Adm nitration migLt represent the Govenwuct, ,t would be Us. deluded, as wel ag more i!:irnt;c and pruoert, if it looked , .. ' i i- m;t; to the L-oinm-. n g.iod, weighing prouacutties, its own ilrer.mli and resources, and especial'y the general opinion as to tne inevitable results of a national tvar. We we.e deceived, as perhaps you, Mexicans, were also deceived in judging cf the true i.ilt'htions 01 (Jen. Santa Anna, whom you recalled, and whom our Government permitted to return. From this condition of things the Mexican nation has seen what have been the rcfeu'ts'Uuiented by all, and by as sincerely, for we sppreciate as is due the valor and 1 oble determination of the uufortunates who go to battle i!l led, worse governed, bud almost invariably outrnged by deceit . r pertn'y. We have witnessed and we cannot be taxed with nsrtialitv for lamenting with aoiiilnnei t that the heroic deportment oflhe garrison of Vera Cruz, in i's valiant defence, was aspersed by the General who had just b. en defeated and put to shameful flight by a force far inferior to tii.it which he commanded, at Ruena Vista; that this general, the, insurgents and pro mooters v( civil war in Mexico, heaped outrage on those who had eingularly distinguished themselves by a resistance beond wh it could be expected, and of admiiable decision. Finally, the bloody event ofCerro G .rdo has .hon tin Mexican nation vvhat it mav reasonably expect, if it longer continues, blind to the true situation in which it has been placed by some generals whom it has most distinguished and in whom it Las mcst confided. Thfl hardest heart would he moved to pricf in contemplating the battle-fields of Mexico a moment after the last struggle. Those generals whom the nation has, w ithout service rendered, paid for so many years, with some honorable exceptions, have, in tl.8 day of need, betrayed it by their bad example or unskilfalness. On he fu!d. amongst the dead and dying, for they are reduced to the sad fate of the o;dier-the tame on every occasion from Palo Alio to Cerro Gordo the dead to remain unburied and the wounded abandoned to the clemency and cliarity .f the rrrqueirr. Sjl liers whe fiiit, expecting such a recompense, to he dasnod amongst the best in the world, since they are stimv.latad by no hope of ephemeral glory, or regret, of remeinberance, or even of a grave. Again; Mexicans of honorable pride, contemplate the lot of peaceful and laborious citizens in all classes of your society. Th' possession oflhe church menace and held out as an incitement to the revolution am! anarchy; the fortune of the rich proprietors pointed out for plunder to the ill disposed; the merchant and the artisan, the laborer and the manufacturer, burdened with contributions, excises, monopolies, takes upon consumption, surrendered wiili restrictions and charged w ith odins internal customs; the man of . letter and the statesman, the itisn of liberal know ledge who dares to speak, persecuted without trial by some 4'action or hy the uileis who abuse their ;iow er;criminals unpunished and set at liberty, as were these of Perote is this 4he"n, Mexicans trie liberty which you f' .!"v. 1 ...11.,.,. k.i..o it.ni iVi . nr,i"ii, of il.e presen: day are wanting in coinage'

WINFIELU SCOTT. LATER FROM VKRA CRUZ. We copy from the Picayune of th 19;h. Tho steamship Mary Kingsland, ('apt. i " ,:,i ' 1,1 ,J J",r,u"J j having made a very fine run. She left j there the evening ol Thursday, the Ilth fins'., one day after the Fashion. i She brought over teven companies of j ,nT 31 regiment Illinois Volunteers.

Ilarnev, of Mount Vernon, -' ' ".".., w.rru ,c ry Kingsland. on the night of tiie 13ih The news fr om the army above is no later by this arrival than e have already received; from Vera Cruz we have gathered a few items of interest. Major Count de Bongars, aid to Gen. Shields, came passenger on the Mary Kingsland, and we have had the pleasure of a conversation with him. He informs us that the night before the vessel sailed a small party of dragoons were surprised at Santa Fe, a small village about fourteen miles from Vera Crrz, by a band of Mexican robbers or guerrillas. Tbere were eleven dragoons in their party, and all but the sentinel asleep. The Mexicans rushed upon him, and his gun having missed fire, he was unable to give the alarm. A scuffle ensued, in which the sentinenel was killed, and the Mexicans rushed upon the rest of the parly. Of these, ten in number, but one escaped unharmed. Six of the others were killed and three wounded. As soon as the news was brought to Vera Cruz by the dragoon who escaped, Capt. Walker, of the Rifles, w-as ordered out with his rommand in pursuit of the marauding party. It is not supposed that it was any thing more than a band of Mexican ladrones. In this connection w e may mention that the arrival of the Mary Kingsland at Cera Cruz, with Capt. , Walker's command on board, excited great pleasure. The volunteers are leaving so rapidly that it was grateful to the Americans at Vera Cruz to see the tide turning. Capt. Walker's, horses.over one hundred in number, suffered nothing from the voyage, and were ready for service immediately upon landing. There has been a good deal of talk in Vera Crr.z about an attack upon that city by Santa Anna, but the apprehensions excited thereby have been entirely dispelled, and probably never had any good foundation; but the whereabouts 'of Santa Anna and his predatory designs still continned the main topic of conversation, ano are a principle theme oflhe letters c receive. In regriJ ti the health of Vera Cruz, a trust worthy correspondent w rites us that there is occasionally a case of sickness which is pronotincei romito, but it does not appear to be on the increase. Editorial Cormptniirnre J tfit: Ptrayvne, Jalapa, Mexico, May iJ, 1347. Intelligent Spaniards here, men who have ample means of information, teil me that matters at the city of Mexico are daily getting worse and worse all is anarchy and confusion. It cannot well be otherwise. Confidence is all gone, money is all gone, hope hat vanished, and in their place poverty and despair reign supreme. The only chance left of opposing the Americans is to raise a frenzy or enthusiasm call it which you will similar to that planted in the enrly revolutionists by Hidalgo, and it is to be doubted w hether there is even virtue enough ieft 1 in i'ie country to rring ao"iii sucn a conumation. At the ce ehralea name 01 L.as Cruoes, fonSh near the city of Mex:co,tt'

may be rcccullee ted that

Mre!i)j .ind Hidalgo h.id nil immense tend ajainsl the few rovM nibble m ronsi under Truxill... and thru ri.ru r the frenzv of the former thru in many instances, during the hottest of ll.e fight, they ran tin and Muff ed their hats into the very mnutln of the Spanish cannon. They catuiut get up! such a feeling now. j Cen. Worth will probably enter the! rich and popu! us city of Puebla on Fii-j day next, General Q;iitirm:i accompany-! ing him. No one anticipate opposition, j but on the contrary it is said that the hr j gerand bettor portion of the inhabitants are growing more and mure anxious for I the entrance of the American, for the! protection ihey will affotd tliem against I the hordesofladror.es and leperous which have always infested that city. We hear nothing of the gtierti!las of latr; they ate ; probably confining themselves t' robbing their own countrymen. j The reports in relation to Santa Anria j ate till I contradictory, but !l ajree that S he is at or near Urizaha. lie has certain-j ly threatened an attack on Vera Crnz.and ; also upon this place, and there arc those j who think, judging from his threats and j actions, that he has become mad since bis recent reverses. The piobability i that he keeps his force about him partly for his own protection, and partly tube toady to strike a blow should a favorable opportunity offer. Gen Scott v.ill probably leave with Gen. Twiggs, in the couiseofa few days for Puebla. His next movemets will depend upon circumstances. Gen. Quitman's appointment as Major General meets with the full npprova. of the army. The wound of Gen. Shields! which every one at first thought would prove mortal beyond doubt, continues to improve and the hopes cf his recoveiy are stronger than ever. I forward this by the dihgencb. It is considered a very in safe conveyance, and for fear my letters may be overhauled by the Mexicans I cannot gay half I otherwise should. Yours, &e, G. W. KCarresioriiUticf of the S. 0. Commercial Timet. Vera Cruz., May Till, 1847. A train is to leave this riiy to morrow, which would be well worth a largo co.-t for Santa Anna to cut off. It ii immensely large and valuable, consisting of about four hundred wagons, loaded wi;h sup plies of all kinds including over half a - , .. , . , , million oi dollars, and a large number of pack mules near or quite a thousand. The escort w ill consist of about one thousand soldiers, about one half of whom are diagoous sent down dy General Scott. It is quite probable that S.mu Anna has intelligence of the preparation, and importance of the train, and it is not improbable that he will endeavor to intercept it. and it is hoped Gen. Scott, will send a large reinfo; cement for the escort so as iu insure us pcricci saiciy. ;ucn a capture would about pay the Mexicans for all the losses since the coiiunenceinvnt 0f the war. Amongst the officers of 11. y acquaintance who go up with this train, are Mi'jor Burns. Capt. Grayson and Dr. Randall. Col. Allison goes in command. Mr. N. P. Tiist the celebrated arrived yesterday with despatches for Gen. Scott and Commodore Perry. The Commodore came up to day, ami held long conversation with Mr. T., evidently very confidential, and often in a tone of voice and with a manner w hich indicated communications and sentiments of no ordinary importance. Mr. Trist is the government in Mexico. He goes with the train to morrow to meet General Scott, and will doubtless give him ample instructions for the effectual piosectition of the wr ! Afternoon, May 8. In the Kagle, which I send you will find a list of fifty-five soldiers w ho w ill remain in Mexico after the warisover. They hare taken up their home amongst lhe sand-hills, and a louder blast than that which called them to the field, w ill be required to call them hence. The number of the army who will thus remain in Eastern Mexico al-l ready far exceeds th:.t of the shipments to California of the same clas. These deaths all occurred w iihin a period of three weeks, and as far as I can judge, by the "dead cat ts" which pass daily in the streets, the month of May, w ill tell a worse story than April has told. The mere dying of these poor fellows is not the worst of the matter, hut as I shall again revert to the subject, I will not now dwell upon any of its details. Many baibarities are committed on the road by 6tnall parties, which sneak like Indians amongst the brushwood, and watch for stragglers from the train. A Lieutenant Kingsbury, of the volunteers, (not the intelligent and intrepid member of General Taylor's,)was, the other day, mangled in a dreadful manner barely escaping into Xalapa with his life. Many others who have observed little caution, have fared much worse tome being found dead in a few minutes after they had stepped out of the train, or line of escort, and no trace of their murderers remaining distinguishable: The Ohio (74) sailed this morning for the United States Boston, I think and the St. Mary's will soon follow. 9 P.M. A squadron of dragoons has justcome in from Xalapa, and report no change in affairs at that place. It is believed that Santa Anna, tvith some fire or six thousand troops is moving, and that his destination is Vera Cruz. The story is refined upon until his distance from the city is narrowed dow n to fifteen miles on the Orizaba road. The Tennessee volunteers were passed by the dragoons some twelve or fifteen miles out, and w ill probably be here to-morrow. I hope they will embark in the Fashion, as the few who are already here are sufficiently troublesome. Today I saw an officer, in the public plaza, insult a lady, or a female, w hosedress and manner were those of a lady. Another fellow this evening overturned a cigar and toy stand, kept by a very pretty Mexican or Creole giil: and five minutes ago a posse of the police were under my window dragging one off for some offence of the kind. These are not very serious outrages, but similar ones are constantly occurring, and they disgrace the American character. llihr-Quitc an excitement is produced among.tthe unacclimated this morning, by reports oflhe appearanceof the mmito.

O110 of the followers of the army, Gal lasher, started frrm Jalapa, fur this place, about seven daysago, and when he reached Vrsn de Avaja, was surrounded by a company of lancers and taken prisoner. He was escorted lo Orizaba, w here Sania Anna was. Gallagher sreaks Span ish well, and by some means got off. He j says ihal Santa Anna has about 4.030 men with him, and that the number was daily I increasing. j Sinta Anna says publicly that he intends to oppose ihe advance of our troops upon Puebla. but it is well known that his ' object is to prey upon our rear. He is j aware that a train will leave here to-day j taking nearly a million dol'ars to Jalapa, and he is determined to make an eff .rt to capture it. For this purpose, he has men stationed upon every height overlooking the road to give notice of its approach. But he will have warm work if ho gels this train. In addition to the stn ng guaid that accompanied it down, I passed jesterday, on the road near Ivicerro, the 3d, 7th, and 2d infantry, with mountain how itzers, all under the command of Co'. Riley. They will reach Puente Nacion a I to-niaht, and to-morrow niht ill oe at San Juan del Rio, where they will be likely to meet the train. Besides this Gen.
